IGFA’s Worldwide Anglers Relief Fund (WARF)
Deadline Date: March 28, 2025
Donor Name: International Game Fish Association
Grant Size: $1000 to $10,000
The International Game Fish Association is seeking applications for the Worldwide Anglers Relief Fund (WARF) to provide critical financial assistance to recreational fishing professionals—including captains, guides, crews, and outfitters—whose livelihoods have been severely affected by natural disasters.
Natural disasters demonstrate the devastating impacts that catastrophic weather, fire, and seismic events can have on the international recreational angling community. Anywhere in the world, on any day, at any time, a thriving recreational fishery can become a wasteland in a matter of hours in a major natural disaster. And the people who often create those recreational fisheries — the captains, guides, crews, and outfitters who depend on recreational fishing for their livelihoods— often find themselves in the center of the storm.
